Lindy USB Port Blocker 🔌 - Set of 10, Pink 40460 Review

Works well. I bought these to protect open ports on my family's laptops. They prevent dirt and other materials from getting into the USB ports when they are not in use.

If you have enough time and inclination, you can pull them out - they're not infallible, but are used to block accidental or relatively secure USB access , they are winners. You can mix and match, just make sure you have the right key to remove them or you're in for an escalation day.

I have many computers in my lab. I don't want users to bring flash drives and possibly infect computers with viruses. I bought these with a set of keys and they are great!

Good product. As described and I feel a lot better when someone tries to plug in a USB stick loaded with malware. They're also needed for USB-C, HDMI, and Lightning connectors.

We use this as an extra layer for PCI compliance. This prevents the USB stick or mobile phone from being connected. We have 2 computers and sometimes users don't understand the difference and tend to connect their devices to the wrong computer. By installing on the front USB ports, they no longer connect their devices to the wrong computer. It's a retention device and with enough force you can pull it out with a tool.

I bought them with a blue key only to realize I had overlooked that the color of the key only works with the port blocker of the same color. I missed that, but since you can remove them with tweezers (port blocker, not port blocker), it seems nonsensical. Now I have to buy another key. Maybe that's the point. Love the product but would love it even more if it wasn't so easy to remove with tweezers. It prevents people from connecting their phones to a PC, but I don't know anything about privacy…
